Replit launch security

Security checklist for Replit apps before launch

Use Replit's Git integration to push the app to GitHub, then run the local check on a cloned copy. The local check covers GitHub Actions and update-automation hygiene. App logic like auth, secrets, payments, webhooks, and runtime behavior still needs manual review before serious traffic.

Local check

Check a repo from your terminal

No network by default
npx taskbounty-check@latest .

Runs locally and checks GitHub Actions + CI hygiene. It writes a local report and does not upload source code or workflow contents.

Want it inside your workflow? Copy the Cursor, Claude, Codex, and GitHub Actions snippets.

It is not a full app security audit: secrets, auth, payments, webhooks, and runtime behavior still need a manual review. For help turning findings into fixes, request a confidential review.

Common launch risks in Replit apps

Environment secrets that are safe in Replit but accidentally copied into source.
Deployment differences between preview and production origins.
Signup, upload, or AI endpoints exposed without cost and abuse limits.

Recommended workflow

  1. Push the Replit project to GitHub and clone it locally.
  2. Run `npx taskbounty-check@latest .` in the cloned repo.
  3. Review environment variables, server-side auth, and production endpoint behavior separately.

Replit launch review prompt

I built this app with Replit. Before launch, review it using this workflow:

1. Push the Replit project to GitHub and clone it locally.
2. Run `npx taskbounty-check@latest .` in the cloned repo.
3. Review environment variables, server-side auth, and production endpoint behavior separately.

Separate local CI/workflow hygiene findings from risks that need human review. Do not upload source code or workflow contents. Ask before changing files.

Next step

Start with the local CLI. If the app handles users, money, private data, webhooks, or AI actions, use the broader checklist and request a confidential review for the parts automation cannot safely verify.
